Does it matter? D/Mo with Dwayna+protspirit+rof will do 5x better than vital+pious. If pious works for them, let them use it. Why would you nerf it, when there are better combos out there which are not nerfed?

and make and dervs think harder on they're healing skills
Dervishes aint monks, they shouldnt spend time thinking about healing skills all the time

The combo isn't that bad. I remember fighting a w/d using it in ra while I had my crippling degen ranger. I just savage shot him right after he casted vital boon on low life to get rid of his signet.
It's definitely not game breaking, people can power through it or even interrupt it.

I see the point, but anet always nerfs every over used combo ex. sf and glowing, so why did they overlook this?

Overused? I never use that combo. I rely solely on Faithful intervention and Mystic Regen for all my healing and I have yet to suffer for it. I think that it is commonly used but in all honesty I have yet to see more than a handful of Dervishes I've played with use it. A lot more of us use Mystic Regen, which saw absolutely no change to it thank god. Then again I run Ebon Dust almost exclusively and that does help when you're relying on regen instead of spike healing. If they can't hit you you can afford to let the regen do the work. I can see where you are coming from but I really don't think that an overwhelming majority of dervishes utilize this combo.

Really? I see it used on 7-10 of all groups that have a derv or part derv in them. I guess i'm just the unlucky one

Honestly I don't do much PvP, I do realize you were addressing PvP issues in this thread however the door was open to a PvE insight when you mentioned it in the original post. As far as PvE goes though it doesn't see as much use. I also tend to do RA when I do PvP and let's face it RA tends to draw some...interesting people. LoL

It's a nice skill combo but you have to consider that's 2 skills just for healing and one of them is a 1 second cast. Sometimes it's works out to wear you can out heal a whole team whalin on ya but most of the times, someone is smart enough to realize what your doing and interrupt your vital boon. It really isn't in need of a fix IMO. It's slow and uses 2 skill slots.

using vital boon +signet of pious light just for healing is a bit nooby choice, but it depends on the build you re running
i preffer to have those two skill slots for watchfull and mystic regen,
anyway its a slow combo, no matter how "sweet" does it look like it isnt that practical,
especially if you have signet if pious light for this combo only (there is a new disease "noobism")
